This disclosure describes techniques for performing communications between devices using various aspects of Ethernet standards. As further described herein, a protocol is disclosed that may be used for communications between devices, where the communications take place over a physical connection complying with Ethernet standards. Such a protocol may enable reliable and in-order delivery of frames between devices, while following Ethernet physical layer rules, Ethernet symbol encoding, Ethernet lane alignment, and/or Ethernet frame formats.

In accordance with an example embodiment of the present disclosure Ethernet communication over IP transport is enabled. The following is performed: Ethernet communication for transmitting and receiving Ethernet frames; IP communication for transmitting and receiving IP data packets over a cellular network; transforming Ethernet frames to IP data packets and vice versa for enabling Ethernet communication over IP transport; and maintaining a header transformation table between Ethernet and IP traffic flows. The transforming comprises using the header transformation table and performing header transformation by removing Ethernet headers from received Ethernet frames and including Ethernet payload in IP data packets, and by reconstructing Ethernet headers for received IP data packets for transmission of payload from the IP data packets in Ethernet frames, wherein the transforming comprises using IPv6 headers of IP data packets to carry dynamic information from the removed Ethernet headers.

Methods and systems for communicating information are disclosed. An example method can comprise receiving information at a first device based on a first protocol. The information can be translated, at the first device, for communication to a second device based on a second protocol. A determination can be made as to whether the information matches a criterion associated with a transportation device. The information can be provided to the second device based on the second protocol and a determination that the information matches the criterion.

An asynchronous switching system and method for processing SDI data streams, the system and method utilizing one or more buffers for cleaning up an output of a dirty IP switch.

A method and an apparatus are disclosed for providing a next-generation network service in a heterogeneous network environment. The present disclosure in some embodiments provides a method and an apparatus, which can operate a conventional network and a next-generation network in an interworking arrangement with high reliability, and can process high-speed data communications by using the next-generation network.

An in-vehicle relay device prevents an anomaly of a control command exchanged over networks having different transmittable data sizes in a frame. The in-vehicle relay device relays communication between multiple control devices in a vehicle over the networks to which the control devices are connected. The in-vehicle relay device receives control data from a first control network. The control data includes, in a frame, a plurality of control commands to be executed by at least one of the control devices. The in-vehicle relay device determines, as a first determination, whether types of the control commands included in the frame form a first combination that is preset as a combination of control commands that are executable simultaneously. The in-vehicle relay device thereafter determines, as a second determination, whether the control data is anomalous by using the result of the first determination, and outputs the result of the second determination.

An electronic device, according to one of the various embodiments of the present disclosure, includes: a memory; a communication module that transmits and receives messages; and a processor that, when a non-IP service-based message is received, creates an IP-based message including at least some of the non-IP service-based message, and provides the created IP-based message. In addition, various embodiments are provided.
